Kuala lumpur: The Ministry of National Unity has conferred the special 'Sahabat Perpaduan MADANI' recognition on Mohd Yusof Mohd Noor, popularly known as 'Abang Minyak Hitam Jalanan', and Dicky in appreciation of their humanitarian spirit, sincerity and embodiment of national unity.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, the office of Deputy National Unity Minister Yuneswaran Ramaraj stated that the recognition was presented as a tribute to ordinary Malaysians who perform extraordinary acts in the service of their communities. The ministry noted that Mohd Yusof's recent act of kindness, which went viral, deeply touched Malaysians after he aided Dicky, whose motorcycle had broken down, without expecting anything in return.

Yuneswaran further elaborated that what Mohd Yusof and Dicky have shown is a reflection of the Malaysia that is cherished, a country built on the values of respect, compassion, and togetherness. The ministry expressed hope that their story would inspire more Malaysians to embrace a culture of helping one another, fostering mutual respect, and preserving harmony in the country's diverse society.

The statement concluded with the sentiment that in the spirit of Malaysia MADANI, every good deed that strengthens social cohesion deserves to be celebrated, recognized, and emulated, so that the values of unity continue to thrive in the daily lives of the people.
